That would break backwards compatibility. Also, having a uniquely
defined format helps when comparing hashes with the output of tools like
b2sum or sha512sum

The hash does not need to be lowercase. It can be a quick fix in portage to
accept any case.

Here's next part of GLEP 74 updates, this time I think it qualifiers
